Why do our dragon fruit sometimes have a white coating?
Dried dragon fruit is a dried fruit with a high fructose content. As they are untreated, sugaring may occur, which appears as a whitish coating on the fruit. This characteristic should be regarded as a sign of quality and does not constitute any impairment of the product.
Freshness guarantee
End-packed directly after production at the origin
The dragon fruits (or pitaya) are processed, washed, peeled, sliced and then gently dried, sorted and packaged immediately after production without any additives. This preserves the texture, flavour and nutrients in their original and healthiest form. This guarantees the best product quality right up until you open the bag at home!
Note: Once opened, we recommend storing in a sealed container in the fridge.
